Let the Great World Spin; design by Robbin Schiff & Anna Bauer, drawing by Matteo Pericoli (full wrap over here): "The delicately drawn city cuts a slice in the cover, much like the beautiful slivers of lives inside the book."

The Death of Bunny Munro, design by Charlotte Strick: "An evil bratty bunny! In no way does this indicate that it will garner a "Bad Sex in a Book" nomination."

Animals and Objects In and Out of Water, illustration by Jay Ryan: "Are they animals? Or are they stuffed animals come to life? Are they sweet, or evil, or both??"

Yummy, illustration by Lucy Cousins: "Incredibly kinetic, this cover let's you know it's not going to be fairy tale business as usual."

Pictorial Webster's, design by John Carrera:

The Great Perhaps, design by Jamie Keenan:

The Housekeeper and the Professor, design by Henry Sene Yee (full wrap here):

The Gone-Away Word, design by Evan Gaffney (full wrap here): "Equally as awesome as the fuzzy pink and green hardcover, this zooming orange design perfectly sums up the ride you're taken on."

Chronic City, design by Rodrigo Corral:

Beat the Reaper, design by Ploy Siripant:

The Bedside Book of Beasts, design by CS Richardson:

The Anthologist, design by Jason J. Heuer: "Simple, elegant, and the plum is actually referred to in the story."

I know the Chronic cover's similarity to Bonfire has been discussed but i don't think anyone mentioned that the photo itself was uncredited, at least on the Chronic cover. It's by Berenice Abbott. And it's awesome.

I like the drawing in Animals and Objects In and Out of Water, illustration by Jay Ryan, but I can't even SEE the title on this webpage....hmmmmmmmmmDon't you think you should at least be able to read the title???

Wow! A surprising number of people are loving Animals and Objects In and Out of Water. Frankly, I just don't get it. The illustration isn't doing much for me, and I'm disappointed by the lack of interesting typography.
